Picture this complex world simply - the world as 100 people. 6.7 billion of us share this planet.Who are we? What do we look like? What can we learn from others? MissionThe 100 People Foundation helps students to better understand the complex issues facing our planet and the resources we share.
By framing the global population as 100 people, our media makes education more engaging and effective, and improves students' abilities to remember and relate to what they learn. VisionWe are traveling the globe to meet and create portraits of the 100 people representing all 6.7 billion of us sharing the planet. Our vision is to create documentary films, photography, and educational tools that facilitate face-to-face introductions among the people of the world in ways that cultivate respect, create dialogue, and inspire global citizenship. Educational ImpactTeachers from schools on every continent have used our media to enrich their lesson plans and engage students in learning about the world population — starting with their neighborhood. Using the 100 People framework, students interview and create portraits of individuals they admire most in their communities. The portraits are then exhibited at their schools and on our website, and inviting students, teachers and community members into a global conversation about their place in the world. Through this process of statistically and visually bridging the local with the global, students develop an equalizing and expansive framework for seeing the people they share the planet's resources with and for activating their role as global citizens.
Environment Online - ENO is a global virtual school and network for sustainable development. Environmental themes are studied throughout the school year and campaigns arranged simultaneously around the world. Over 10 000 schools from 150 countries have taken part since 2000. The ENO programme is coordinated and maintained by ENO Programme Association based in the city of Joensuu, Finland. Schools have made concrete deeds for the environment like planted five million trees so far. For us, sustainable development is environmental, economic, social and cultural well-being for today and tomorrow. There is no sustainable development without education.
We value collaborative learning and shared resources. Our logo is a kite. It symbolizes challenges in learning as well as freedom and equality in learning, despite boundaries.
Our Global Virtual Classroom [GVC] Project is a worldwide program for any primary or secondary school that chooses to participate. Approximately 33,500 students and 1,920 teachers from over 600 schools in 62 countries have participated in this project over the years.
The GVC is now accepting applications for the 2011-2012 web design contest. Contest has cash awards for top winners and software awards for Merit Award winners.
Registrations for the non-competitive Clubhouse program are also being accepted. For more about both programs, check our website: http://www.virtualclassroom.org
